I know about the famous photos, I've seen the famous photos time and again. But I never knew the details or the happenstance behind them until now: https://www.youtube.com/embed/dE-vOscpiNc

Wonderful! I'll always feel privileged about having been a child when the Apollo missions were being carried out. A wondrous moment in history.

Here's the video. It is a really cool piece.

It's interesting, humorous and awe-inspiring. I heard one of them say the exposure was 1/250 at f/11.

Here is NASA's photo and explanation of it.
